Glad your project is moving to the next stage!

You are going to drop the car over the motor right?

I love the pictures..................

You sure the shakey pictures are not because you are getting a little scared and anxious, getting real close to fit up now old mate. :2thumbs:

o.k.  o.k.  I am a bit nervous.  Anxious is an understatement!   The valve covers are nice! Not that expensive for what they are. They have real thick flanges,Never any problems with these :grinno:  clean up nice with stainless wipes.I think they were just over 100 bucks. :clueless:    Can't believe I've come this far so fast. There is no way I thought I'd be this close with all the upgrades. Without you guys,I couldn't do it. Just the desire to post progress pics keeps me motivated.  I'll take some deep breaths and try for better pics :faint:    :smilielol:    :2thumbs:   Thanks you guys!! :ylsuper:

My work van needs a timing chain and water pump.It's going to slow the 'cuda down just a bit. Again,Something comes up right before installation. :dunno: Oh well,I got one shot left to get it in and everything even close to dialed enough to drive by May 31st. It can happen.Just sitting here doing little things,wiring,fuel line fittings,battery mount.Scored some adjustable rockers too.Pushrods,new wires,Electric fans,Lot's of stuff.  Found an aluminum radiator that will work with the alterkation...700 Bucks! That hurts. Keep at it :working: Not much left.

oooooooooouch.  The stuff we really need hurts the pocket the most.  But it is amazing how much the little things add up too :faint:
